I have not posted here on this board for quite a while - still read it often, though. I posted this question on the other board as well, so we'll see what happens here...
I'm getting the itch for an English game gun. Some questions:
1. What are the general opinions and thoughts about wood extentions on stocks? I understand that's more common "over there," but does it really kill the value of the gun? Say you found a gun with good LOP, but it had a 1" extention. Would it be a good or bad idea to remove the extention and replace it with a recoil pad?
2. Where to find one? I've looked at Hill Rod and Gun (good reputation?) and Cabela's (I've dealt with them many times before). There are some other shops online I know - where have you had good luck finding a good, affordable gun? I'm looking in the lower end, of course - B'ham BLEs and such.
I have the book by Dig Hadoke on order, so that will help I'm sure. I appreciate any help or insight you can pass along...
